No, here it is different from the secondary side which needs to wait
until backup job been canceled before resumes to run (Or there will be
an error, https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9128841/).

For primary VM, Just as you can see the design scenario in patch 1,
It accesses the shared disk directly, the backup job whose source side
is just the shared disk does not influence primary VM's running,
So IMHO, it is safe to call block_job_cancel here.

Thanks,
